In English, we started the week investigating an ‘incident’ that was found in the wood area. The children thought of lots of questions about what they could see. We then continued the week by starting our book Beegu and sequencing the story. We also looked at the character of Beegu and wrote expanded noun phrases to describe her.

In Maths, we have continued to focus on place value and have partitioned 2-digit numbers into tens and ones. We have used base 10, place value charts and part-part whole models to help us with this. We have also written numbers to 100 in words.

We have continued to discuss and learn about internet safety in Computing. We helped ‘Bella the dog’ who was having some problems and worries while using the internet. The children were able to say what she needed to do and to always talk and show a trusted adult. We also loved listening to the ‘Online Safety Rap’!

School Council Elections: 

We will be running school council elections next week in class. If your child would like to run in those elections, all they have to do is prepare a little speech about why the class should vote for them to represent Kestrels class in the School Council.

Reminders:

• PE days are Monday and Wednesday.
• Please bring in reading books and reading records every day and read 5 times a week at home. Remember an adult needs to sign the reading records.
• Spellings will come home on Monday. Please practice these every day at home ready for our spelling test on Fridays.

Have a wonderful weekend!
